The Mörser Karl – also known as Karl Gerät – was the heaviest self-propelled mortar used by the German army during World War II. This impressive war machine, equipped with a massive 600 mm caliber barrel, was primarily designed to destroy heavily fortified positions. It saw action during the sieges of Sevastopol and Warsaw, as well as in battles on the Eastern Front. Produced between 1940 and 1945, its unique appearance and firepower made it one of the most recognizable German super-heavy war vehicles.
